You know what we think about legaltech.

As an special service, the JC is tracking the legaltechbros he knows about.

This comes, at first, from those enusiastic people at Legal Geek and their “startup map” that they kindly created in 2021, and which is now a dynamic, although somewhat hard to follow, online resource.

This gives you the current state of peak inflated expectations, but buries its own fossil record — those legaltech startups which are, for whatever reason, not in a way which our one won’t.

As we go we are adding new ventures as we find out about them — if you would like yours featured don’t hesitate to drop us a line.

We aim to track two dynamics:

First: those that have just run out of steam altogether — “defunct as of ~” —

Second: those who have been acquired, the theory being that the legaltech sector is utterly desperate for any kind of consolidation, so being hoovered up into a bigger operator, as an alternative to just running out of money altogether, is the smart choice. But good luck with that exit package.

Where we see it, we have also added snarkish, superficial and no doubt thoroughly unjustified shade about the products based on their website presentation.

As we get on we are planning to build the list out to feature the types of businesses these websites represent, but for now just clicking on the links will reveal a jaw-dropping amount of homogeneity. Lots of frustrated associates at across the big law universe have all had the same idea.

So, with feeling:
